have you ever stocked up on a product being thrifty and gone a bit mad

helenhugs

love it lol. I would be terrible for this if hubby would let me. He refuses to let me do the shopping for fear of what i will return with lol.
He's been a few times & i see an offer, make a bee line for it & make sure its something we need/will use/want & i'd happily stock up. Especially toilet rolls & things like that, he cant see it though & refuses to stock up on anything.

I might have to try a bit harder to see if i can persuade him to come round to my way of thinking lol.

hugs

I have been stocking up at tescos and this is one fifth of what I have - all the toothbrushes, toothpaste are in the loft, this lot is going to my mum's house:





I have 65 bags worth in the loft which is going to be divided between local charities, myself, family, friends and the school.

My ultimate goal in buying these items was to boost my points and now at over 28,000 I have achieved that - thanks Leadhead.

I'm showing my best friend and her husband this thread!!!

Whenever toilet rolls are on offer which is almost always I pick some up so I have a load in my bathroom cabinet, the tank cupboard is full and I even have rolls and rolls stacked up in the wardrobe in the spare room

Don't want to run out do I

Anyway my mate and her husband thinks its (or rather me) is funny so I'm going to show them this thread to prove I'm not the only person who stocks up on loo rolls

I have a penchant for Loyd Grossman curry sauce, the tikka masala is particularly tops. Every few months or so ASDA do a 3 for £3 deal, which is really cheap because Tesco sell them for £1.99 a jar. Whenever i notice a deal is on i always by 6 or so jars. I currently have around 20 jars in my cupboard. When making a curry, i use 1 onion, and turkey meat instead of chicken which is much cheaper, the jar, a tin of chick peas and some red lentils. This will normally make 3-4 portions. Winner!:j

Cif spray was 3 for £3 recently so I've now got bottles of it everywhere :rotfl:

And when on holiday I found somewhere that did nouvelle loo roll dirt cheap so we came home with the car full to bursting with it. 150 miles home wedged in the seat by loo roll Too good a bargain to miss!

I still have enough toilet paper to give my flat a whole other layer of insulation... I am working my way through the stash, but my boyfriend uses a lot of toothpaste and squeezes about an inch out before he uses it :mad: because the lid's been left off... who the bloomin' heck does he think leaves the lid off in the first place? :mad: :mad: :mad:
